Question

When I was about 12, a girl in my class liked to point out (指出) my problems. I was too thin; I wasn’t a good student; I talked too much; I was too proud (驕傲) and so on. At last, I became very unhappy and ran to my father.

He listened to me quietly. Then he asked, “Are these things true or not? Do you know what you are really like? Go and make a list of what she said and find the things that are true.”

I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half of the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but there were things I could and wanted to change. For the first time, I got a clear picture of myself.

I brought the list back to Dad. He didn’t take it, “That’s just for you,” he said “You know the truth (真相) about yourself better than anyone else. When people say something that doesn’t sound nice, don’t be unhappy and feel hurt. Listen to them and you’ll find it helpful.”
